No, we are speaking about different commands, such as commit, fetch, push, 
etc.

I refuse to believe that you cannot see the equivalence.

Exactly my point.

Bash completion is really something fine.

But even without, I do not see a problem: many cvs users used only three 
out of 32 commands (most CVS users I personally know/knew only called add, 
commit and update).  You could even see all 32 commands when calling the 
clunky command line "cvs --help-commands".  I am convinced we're already 
more user-friendly than that.
